Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Four for Four

About

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Four for Four is a 1992 handheld LCD game from Konami that tasks players with guiding one of the four Turtles through maze-like levels. Each screen is a puzzle of obstacles and enemies, with the goal of collecting all required items and reaching the exit. Controls are simple but precise, typical for the era’s handheld format. The UK version relabeled the game as Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles: Four for Four, swapping the cover art but keeping the core gameplay intact. Single-player focus makes it a straightforward challenge, though the repetitive nature might test patience over time. The game’s charm lies in its nostalgic simplicity, fitting the limited capabilities of early handheld devices. While not the most complex entry in the franchise, it remains a curious artifact of 90s arcade-style design. The sticker artwork change in the UK version reflects regional branding strategies of the time. Konami’s influence is clear, but the title is best remembered for its place in the Turtles’ early video game history. Short sessions and straightforward puzzles make it a quick, if basic, throwback for retro fans.
